Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.
You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |

The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Borneo and the Philippines. In Borneo, most writers
indicate distribution includes Sabah and Sarawak, with plants growing in
hill forests and lower mountain forests at 1950—4900 ft. (600-1500 m).
Beaman, Wood, Beaman and Beaman (2001), in their Orchids of Sarawak, do
not include this species as occurring there. The named variety,
Spathoglottis kimballiana var. angustifolia Ames occurs in the Philippines
on Luzon and Panay Islands and on the Sibuyan Islands in the Visayas where
it grows as a terrestrial at about 1000 ft. (300 m), but the species is
reported not to occur in the Philippines. (It is reported that the only
distinguishing feature of this variety is that is has narrower leaves.)
